Mock

Goal

Let the user see a change before it is built. The user decides by looking, not by imagining.

Steps

1. Find the options. Find the different ways that the change can look or behave.
2. Make a mock for each option. Use the real styles of the product. A mock can be a page, a prototype, or a screenshot.
3. Show the mocks together. Tell the differences between them.

Rules

• Make the mocks fast. Do not build the real feature.
• Keep the mocks out of the product code.
